This book is a practical engineering guide to microwave material measurements for both laboratory and manufacturing/field environments, including nondestructive inspection (NDI) and nondestructive evaluation (NDE). The book covers proven methods for characterizing materials at microwave frequencies, including both resonant and wide-bandwidth techniques, and gives you the necessary theory and equations for implementing these methods. You’ll understand how to invert dielectric and/or magnetic material properties from free space transmission and reflection, and how to measure traveling wave attenuation. You’ll also know how to measure dielectric and/or magnetic material properties from transmission line fixtures and learn how to use computational electromagnetic modeling with a measurement fixture. The book shows you how to build and use microwave NDE equipment for radomes and/or structural dielectric materials. This is an excellent resource for Engineers/scientists conducting or analyzing RF/Microwave/MMW material measurements for applications in electromagnetic materials, as well as those who are developing or applying microwave non-destructive evaluation (NDE) methods to their manufacturing problems. A number of methods exist for characterizing materials at RF and microwave frequencies, including both resonant and wide-bandwidth techniques. These different techniques are like tools in a toolbox, and each has its advantages and disadvantages. However, this book focuses on the wideband, non-resonant methods as they are applicable to the widest range of materials and are often more practical to use in nonlaboratory environments.

The Raspberry Pi can do all the types of things you expect from a regular PC – everything from browsing the internet and playing games to watching movies and listening to music. But Raspberry Pi is much more than a modern computer. This book will begin with the peripherals you’ll need and how to set it up and install distros familiar to you. Raspbian tutorials then introduce you to the creative potential of the device. A weather station, music streamer and Twitter-powered LAMP are a few of the many project tutorials we’ve shown you how to create, and there’s also a section on how to get started with Scratch and Python programming. Several distros of Linux run on the Raspberry Pi, including Arch Linux, Debian "wheezy", and Raspbian — a Pi-optimised version of Debian. The PI, again like its predecessors, can interact outside of itself via easy-to-use sensors that communicate with it through its GPIO (General Purpose Input/Output) interface.

This book provides an overview of current hardware security problems and highlights how these issues can be efficiently addressed using computer-aided design (CAD) tools. Authors are from CAD developers, IP developers, SOC designers as well as SoC verification experts. Readers will gain a comprehensive understanding of SoC security vulnerabilities and how to overcome them, through an efficient combination of proactive countermeasures and a wide variety of CAD solutions. Emerging hardware security vulnerabilities are menacing since it is almost impossible to amend the design after fabrication. Recent studies reported vulnerabilities, including side-channel leakage, information leakage, access control violations, malicious functionality, etc. Software-level security mechanisms can easily bypass these attacks and put the devices or systems at risk. Increased design complexity, aggressive time to markets, and exotic hardware attacks portent the security of hardware designs. Ensuring the security of system-on-chip (SoC) in terms of trustworthiness, privacy, and reliability is exacting for its wide usage.

This book shows you how to develop a hybrid mm-wave chipless Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system, which includes chipless tag, reader hardware, and detection algorithm that use image processing and Machine Learning (ML) techniques. It provides the background and information you need to apply the concepts of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into detection and chipless tag signature printable on normal plastic substrates, instead of the conventional peak/nulls in the frequency tags. You'll learn how to incorporate new AI detection techniques along with cloud computing to lower costs. You'll also be shown a cost-effective means of image construction, which can lower detection errors. The book focuses on side-looking-aperture-radar (SLAR) with a combination of Deep Learning to provide a much safer means of chipless detection than the current inverse synthetic-aperture radar (iSAR) techniques.
